12. March 2019.EXCHANGE 5 PROGRAMME – PUBLIC COMPETITION FOR MUNICIPAL SUPPORT PACKAGES FOR PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

A public competition has been announced for Municipal Support Packages for property management within the framework of Exchange 5, a programme funded by the European Union under IPA 2014 and implemented by the Ministry of Public Administration and Local Self-Government (MPALSG), in cooperation with the Department for Contracting and Financing Programmes for European Union Funds of the Ministry of Finance and the Standing Conference of Towns and Municipalities (SCTM) as the implementing partner.

The Municipal Support Packages to local self-government units (LSGUs) are a set of activities tailored to local needs and designed to help selected municipalities to solve particular problems concerning property management. Once implemented, based on the results achieved and the experiences gained, these packages will become the standards or guidelines for subsequent assistance to other Serbian LSGUs in this field.

This competition is open to all cities and municipalities except those LSGUs that received support under the EU Exchange 5 and Exchange 4 grant schemes in the field of property management. Three regional presentations will be held in the third week of March to provide support to all LSGUs interested in applying for the competition.

Activities under the Municipal Support Packages will be implemented from May 2019 to April 2020.
